Nels Mitchell on Homeland Security

Staunch defender of Mountain Home Air Force Base

Q: How would you help Americans save so they can secure their future and live independently as they age?

A:My first priority is jobs and the economy. I would be an advocate for Idaho's economy and living wage jobs; there is a lot that a
Senator working for Idaho can do. I would support and fight for funding for INL. I would be a staunch defender of Mountain Home Air Force Base and other federal facilities.

Maintain Mountain Home Air Force Base

Unlike Mr. Risch, I won't cast silly votes to shutdown our government; I won't use budget blackmail to harm
Mountain Home Air Force Base or the INL.
